"Just as I said, there are many people who don't believe that the demons have been eradicated. However, the various races of the Three Realms now have their own agendas. It's difficult to unite like before, let alone fight the Demons," Patriarch Subhuti said slowly.
"Compared to uniting the various races to fight the Demons, this junior is actually more concerned about the outcome of the Battle of Chang 'an in the dreamscape. This junior and my fellow Daoists risked our lives to reseal Chi You, but we don't know why it would affect the changes in the world a thousand years ago, "Shen Luo said with a frown.
"It's not difficult for the changes in the past to affect the future, but for the changes in the future to affect the past, it doesn't make sense. I'm afraid something else happened after you died in the dream," Patriarch Subhuti said.
"This junior thinks so too. This is also the reason why I came to Mount Fangcun this time," Shen Luo said as he stood up.
"You want me to help you repair this jade pillow and send you into the future in the dreamscape? However, I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint you. This old man is not skilled in this. I can't even see through this jade pillow, let alone repair it, "Patriarch Subhuti shook his head and said with a wry smile.
"Senior misunderstands. This junior has already obtained the repair method from Tianji City. I just lack some treasures to help me repair this jade pillow," Shen Luo hurriedly said.
"You're saying that there's something you need in my Mount Fangcun?" Patriarch Subhuti raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Exactly. I came here this time precisely because I wanted to borrow the Stately Painting from Senior. I'll naturally return the treasure once I've finished repairing it." Shen Luo cupped his fists and bowed as he spoke respectfully.
Patriarch Subhuti's expression changed when he heard this. He fell silent for a moment.
His gaze fell on Shen Luo and he sized him up.
Shen Luo immediately felt like he was being seen through and subconsciously shrank back.
"It's not that this old man doesn't want to trust you, but this item is too important. This old man cannot hand it over to you. Otherwise, it might harm you and bring you a fatal disaster." Patriarch Bodhi said slowly with a solemn expression.
"Could it be that the suspicious cultivators gathered at the foot of the mountain are all here for this item?" Shen Luo immediately thought of a possibility.
"It seems that you've noticed them as well?" Patriarch Bodhi's eyes lit up as he smiled.
"In that case, the matter of Mount Fangcun being sealed off was also because of this?" Shen Luo asked.
"You can say that. This matter is rather complicated and cannot be explained in a few words. "Patriarch Bodhi waved his hand and said.
"Senior, is there anything this junior can do to help?" Shen Luo couldn't help but ask. His feelings towards Fang Cun Shan were rather special.
"Do you know who is targeting Mount Fangcun this time?" Patriarch Bodhi hesitated for a moment before asking.
"There are many people at the foot of the mountain. This junior has only taken a quick glance and is unable to distinguish their identities. However, I believe that the Demons must be involved." Shen Luo said.
"Demons … That's right. The current turmoil in the three realms cannot be avoided without the shadows of the Demons behind it. However, it is not so simple this time. Therefore, this matter is not something you can get involved in." Patriarch Bodhi sighed.
Shen Luo fell silent when he heard this.
Although he had reached the early stage of the True Immortal Realm, his cultivation and battle strength were still insufficient. At the very least, he definitely had no chance of winning against an enemy who could fight against an existence like Patriarch Bodhi.
"Since that is the case, this junior will take his leave and not cause trouble for senior on the mountain." Shen Luo said.
"I thought you would say something like advancing and retreating together with Mount Fangcun?" Patriarch Bodhi was a little surprised when he saw this and couldn't help but ask.
"This junior's cultivation methods are all from Mount Fangcun. I have long admired senior and the sect. However, this junior feels that he still has a mission to fulfill. Therefore, I cannot say such words." Shen Luo shook his head and said.
"Your temperament is very much to my liking. Perhaps there is something you can do for me." Patriarch Bodhi pondered and said.
"Senior, please speak." Shen Luo said respectfully.
"Go to the Mountain Curtain Cave of Huaguo Mountain in the Sea of Dong Sheng Divine Continent. Find my disciple Sun Wukong and pass my entrusted letter to him." Patriarch Bodhi thought for a moment and said.
Shen Luo was no stranger to Mountain Huaguo. He had already been there once in his dream.
"Well, this junior can help senior with this matter. It just so happens that I have to go to the East Sea Dragon Palace for some matters." Shen Luo thought for a moment and immediately agreed.
"I only asked you to deliver the letter on my behalf. I didn't say that the Mountain River Map would be your reward." Patriarch Bodhi raised his eyebrows slightly and looked at Shen Luo.
"It's just an errand to deliver a letter on the way. If senior uses the 'Mountain River Map' as a reward, junior will doubt whether this' Mountain River Map 'is real or not." Shen Luo smiled and said.
"Then I'll have to trouble you." Patriarch Bodhi just raised the teacup in his hand and said.
"Since this junior can't help with the matters on the mountain, I will immediately set off for Mountain Huaguo." Shen Luo clasped his fists and said.
"Even if you are in a hurry, you can rest on the mountain for a night. Tonight, with the astrology as the foundation, I will be holding a lecture for the disciples. Why don't you and your friends come and listen?" Patriarch Bodhi took a sip of tea and said.
"This junior is not a disciple of Mount Fangcun. Can I listen?" Shen Luo heard this and was immediately overjoyed.
"Tonight, I will be the one giving the lecture. Naturally, I have the final say." Patriarch Bodhi smiled and said.
"Thank you, senior." Shen Luo immediately bowed and saluted.
"It's still early for the lecture. Let the Taoist children lead the way for you to rest." Patriarch Bodhi said.
Shen Luo could only bow and thank him again.
When he straightened up, a dazzling white light shone in front of him and the Void Light Door appeared.
He took a step and returned to the thatched hut.
Outside the cottage, Fu Donglai was holding a teacup in his hand and savoring it carefully. He was not very interested in fine wine, but he had a unique liking for fragrant tea.
"The two of you, please follow me." The Taoist child seemed to have received Patriarch Bodhi's decree and led the two of them directly to the guest house halfway up the mountain.
...
Evening.
In a spacious square on Mount Fangcun.
Hundreds of disciples sat cross-legged in the shape of a fan, surrounding a simple lecture platform that was slightly higher than the ground.
Shen Luo and Fu Donglai were among them. Their positions were not too far from the lecture platform.
When the sun gradually set and the moon rose, the light of the Evergreen Star appeared in the deep blue sky. A figure condensed from the light and appeared on the lecture platform, sitting cross-legged.
The disciples of Mount Fangcun did not stand up. They all shouted respectfully, "Welcome, Patriarch Bodhi."
After Patriarch Bodhi appeared, two figures appeared beside him. They were both dressed in green Taoist robes. One of them had high cheekbones and a solemn expression. It was Jueming, the one who had stopped Shen Luo and Fu Donglai outside the mountain gate.
As for the other round-faced Daoist, Shen Luo had learned from the little Daoist that he was Patriarch Subhuti's other personal disciple, Jue An. Like Senior Brother Jue Ming, he was Patriarch Subhuti's right-hand man and was responsible for managing the complicated affairs of the sect.
